HAD THE MOST INCREDIBLE, THE MOST INCREDIBLE YEAR, SO WHAT I
WANT TO KNOW IS, WAS IT GREAT OR WAS IT AMAZING?
HOW MUCH DID YOUR LIFE CHANGE WHEN DRAKE RELEASED THAT SONG
KIKI?
HOW MANY-- HOW OFTEN, HOW MANY TIMES A DAY DO YOU JUST SAY TO
SOMEONE HI, I'M KIKI AND THEY IMMEDIATELY JUST GO KIKI, DO YOU
LOVE ME.
♪ ARE YOU RIDING.
♪.
>> YOU KNOW T WAS FINE WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT, I'M LIKE OH MY
GOD, DRAKE WROTE A SONG ABOUT ME, THAT'S NICE.
SAND THEN SHORTLY THEREAFTER I WAS DONE CUZ IT GOT TO THE
POINT, YOU KNOW YOU ARE ORDERING FOOD AND THEY MAY ASK, WHAT IS
THE NAME OF THE ORDER, AND IT GOT TO THE POINT I WAS ALMOST
EMBARRASSED THAT MY NAME WAS KIKI, OH, IT IS FOR-- KIKI.
AND THEN IT WAS ALWAYS THIS MOMENT OF LIKE, ARE THEY GOING
TO SING IT.
ARE THEY, THEY'RE GOING TO SING IT.
>> James: RIGHT, AND THE WHOLE.
>> AND THEN THE DANCE CAME, YEAH.
>> James: YOU BOTH WENT TO THE GOLDEN GLOBES LAST NIGHT.
WHAT WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE FLIGHT FOR SNU.
>> LIKE SO THE LINE WHAT IS IT CALLS THE STEP AND REPEAT.
>> James: WHERE YOU GET YOUR PHOTO.
>> IN IS A LINE OF PEOPLE AND I SEE WAKANDA IS-- IS OVER THERE,
LEANA WAITE IS RIGHT THERE ELIZABETH MOSS, ALL THESE
PEOPLE.
SO A BEE LINE COMING AT ME, I SHOULD SAY FLOATING IS JULIA
ROBERTS.
SHE LOOKS AT ME, GIVES ME A BIG HUG, OH MY GOD, I HAVEN'T SEEN
YOU SINCE YOU WERE THE KID, OH MY [BLEEP] I'M SORRY FOR
CURSING.
AND SO THEN SHE'S LIKE BOLTS THROUGH THE LINE, LIKE YOU ARE
HE COMING WITH ME, AND WE PASSED EVERYBODY THROUGH THE LINE LIKE
SHE SKIPS THE LINE.
SO I'M WALKING THROUGH WAKANDA, I'M WALKING THROUGH, LAY, YAL,
I'M WITH HER, SORRY. AND SO I ENDED UP SKIPPING THE RYNE.
AND SHE GOES N I BETTER SEE YOU AFTERWARDS.
SHE FLOATS OFF INTO THE STEP AND REPEAT, I FALL BACK AND GO BACK
BEHIND THE LINE BECAUSE I JUST FELT SOAM BAR RASED IT WAS
EMBARRASSED.
I SKIPPED THE LINE WITH JULIA ROBERTS.
>> James: WE CAUGHT YOU HERE, YOU HAVE BEEN TO AWARD SHOWS
WITH YOUR PARENTS BEFORE.
BUT IT MUST HAVE FELT DIFFERENT GOING THIS TIME AS A NOMINEE AND
THEM A ACCOMPANYING YOU?
>> IT WAS A PROUD MOMENT.
MY POPS IS PRETTY GANGSTER ABOUT A LOT OF STUFF BUT HE WAS
CRACKING A LITTLE BIT, I THINK.
HE WAS DB-- -- .
>> James: REALLY, WE THINK WE ALMOST GOT SOME TEARS.
>> I DON'T KNOW ABOUT TEARS BUT THAT SAY LITTLE SMILE.
THAT'S A SMILE.
>> James: THAT IS ACTUALLY THE MOST I HAVE EVER SEEN.
>> WHAT I AM SAYING.
>> James: DENZEL WASHINGTON SMILE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
>> HE CAN SMILE, YEAH.
>> James: NOW KIKI WE HAVE TO CONGRATULATE YOU ON IF BEALE
STREET COULD TALK.
I LOVE THIS FILM SO MUCH.
DIRECTED BY BARRY JENGIN WHOSE IS A GENIUS FILMMAKER AND FOR
ANYONE WHO HASN'T SEEN IT AND THEY ABSOLUTELY SHOULD, TELL
THEM WHAT IT IS ABOUT AND WHO YOU PLAY.
>> I PLAY THE CHARACTER TISH AND IT IS ABOUT HOW TISH IS FIGHTING
TO GET HER IF IAN SAY WHO HAS BEEN WRONGLY ACCUSED OF A CRIME
OUT OF PRISON.
BUT WHILE IS HE IN PRISON MY CHARACTER FINDS OUT THAT SHE IS
PREGNANT.
AND SO IT'S THIS BEAUTIFUL STORY, YOU KNOW, BEAUTIFUL LOVE
STORY BETWEEN TWO YOUNG BLACK SOUL MATES BUT BECAUSE IT IS A
JAMES BALDWIN ADAPTATION, IT IS DONE WITH SOME-- DEALING WITH
SOME REAL ISSUES EVEN THOUGH IT IS BASED IN THE EARLY 70S.
WE'RE STILL DEALING WITH THOSE SAME ISSUES AND HAVING THOSE
SAME CONVERSATIONS SO IT'S REALLY POWERFUL.
>> James: NOW YOUR CHARACTER IS PREGNANT.
SO PRETTY MUCH THROUGHOUT THE FILM.
NOT HAVING KIDS IN YOUR LIFE WHAT DID YOU LEARN ABOUT BEING
PREGNANT WHEN WERE YOU PREPARING FOR THIS ROLL?
>> THAT WE CAN HOLD OFF ON THAT FOR AWHILE.
NO, BECAUSE I'M DOING ALL THIS RESEARCH.
AND REALLY LEARN BEING WHAT HAPPENS TO A WOMAN'S BODY WHEN
SHE'S PREGNANT.
>> James: YEAH.
>> NO THANK YOU.
RIGHT NOW AT LEAST.
THERE IS A WHOLE MENTAL PRESENTATION I THINK I NEED.
BUT NO, WHEN I WAS DOING MY RESEARCH I ENDED UP FALLING INTO
LIKE THIS YOUTUBE RABBIT HOLE OF PREGNANT WOMEN EXERCISING.
>> James: YEAH.
>> NO, I MEAN IT WAS FASCINATING BECAUSE I WAS SURPRISED AT THE
THINGS THAT A PREGNANT WOMAN, EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT IS STILL
SQUATTING AND I DON'T KNOW, DOING PUSH-UPS.
LIKE THEY WERE DOING STUFF THAT I CAN'T EVEN DO RIGHT NOW.
>> James: YEAH.
>> I MEAN THEY WERE, IT WAS CRAZY SO THAT IS HOW I KEPT-- .
>> James: YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT.
MY WIFE DIDN'T MOVE.
MY WIFE DIDN'T MOVE FOR THE LAST FOUR MONTHS OF THE PREGNANCY.
SHE WAS ON THE COUCH AND I WOULD COME HOME AND SOMETIMES I WOULD
BE LIKE, SHE WOULD BE LIKE HOW WAS YOUR DAY, AND I WOULD BE
LIKE I'M SO TIRED.
I HAD TO DO THIS BIT FOR THE THING AMOUNT OFnd SHE WOULD
GO, ARE YOU TIESHED.
SHE GOES I MADE EYELASHES INSIDE MY STOMACH.
I GREW A HEART INSIDE ME SO YOU GET ME SOME DINNER RIGHT NOW.
>> YEAH.
I THINK I WILL BE MORE LIKE THAT.
>> James: I WILL SAY THE FILM IS A MASTER PIECE AN ARE YOU
BRILLIANT
